God's nature as the God of peace is exemplified throughout Scripture, particularly through the work of Christ who made peace through His blood.
The title 'God of peace' reflects His character and work in the world. Throughout the Scriptures, God is described as bringing order and tranquility, which is fundamentally opposed to confusion. Colossians 1:20 emphasizes that peace was established through the blood of Christ on the cross, ensuring reconciliation with God. This act is a demonstration of God's peace-making work, as He desires man to be at peace with Him and with one another, illustrating that true peace is rooted in the gospel and the finished work of Jesus.
